Healing is at hand-- Truthfulness is the "Must- have" Foundation -- for Heart, Mind and Body
All of us can own all that we are. Seeing what is good as well as what may trouble us is a beginning.
An “Adult Child” often has fears, unmet needs, poor self- care and dysfunction.
Are you an “Adult Child” carrying unresolved issues from childhood? Just about everyone has some of that. Many are only dimly aware of it, yet it can create challenges that can affect all of life.
…
"Test Yourself":
Have you been challenged with your own compulsive or perfectionist behavior? Do you fear criticism & fail to recognize your achievements ?
Do you feel more alive in the midst of crisis, but feel uneasy or unsure when life is going well? Do have trouble communicating and often choose to isolate yourself from others? Or cling to relationships for fear of being alone?
Do you have trouble with intimacy? Have you confused pity with love?
Do you overextend yourself, caring for others easily while ignoring many of your own needs? Do you find it hard to identify and express your emotions? Do you find yourself mistrusting your own feelings & those expressed by others? Are you fearful of authority figures and/or angry people? Do you guess at what "normal" is & sometimes feel like a child living in a world of grown-ups? Are you super-responsible or irresponsible, super- controlled or over- impulsive, OR switch between these extremes?
